Glee Club
A glee club is a musical group or choir group, historically of male voices but also of female or mixed voices, which traditionally specializes in the singing of short songs by trios or quartets. In the late 19th century it was very popular in most schools and was made a tradition to have in American high schools from then on. Glee clubs were named after a form of English part song, called a glee, which they typically sang. The first named Glee Club held its initial meeting in the Newcastle Coffee House in London in 1787. Glee clubs were very popular in Britain from then until the mid-1850s but by then they were gradually being superseded by larger choral societies. By the mid-20th century, proper ''glee'' clubs were no longer common. Testifying to the importance of glee clubs in 19th Century America, Henry Stone, a Union veteran of the American Civil War, recalled that "A glee club came down from Chicago, bringing with them the new song, 'We'll rally 'round the flag, boys' ...

Glee Club (British Politics)
The Glee Club is a traditional event at the twice-per-year Liberal Democrat Conference and the Liberal Assembly, consisting of attendees singing around a piano. It is a popular event in British politics and was a formative event in the lives of many British political leaders, including the former leader of the Labour Party, Michael Foot, amongst them. Foot described its opening song, " The Land", as the best political song he had come across, imbued with the democratic spirit, and designed to put fear in the hearts of the landlords. Although the Glee Club has informally existed for many years, in 1967 the first songbook (entitled ''After the Count Was Over'') was published by the National League of Young Liberals. Songbooks have been produced since the 1975 by '' Liberator''. The 20th edition of the Liberator Songbook was published in 2009; it was the 27th songbook in its publishing history.''The Liberator Song Book'', 2009, Liberator, p.49.

The respectable and artistic character of glees contrasts with the bawdiness of the many Catch (music), catches which continued to be composed and sung well into the early years of the 19th century. The use of the countertenor voice on the upper part(s) in glees composed for men's voices, and on the Alto part(s) in those for mixed voices, is a particular characteristic of the form (the most famous exponent, known for his elegant ornamentation, was William Knyvett (singer), William Knyvett) and serves to distinguish glees from other male voice partsongs, which usually lack countrapuntal writing and have the top part taken by a tenor.
